III. Main Part

1. PRACTISING VOCABULARY

1. T: Environmental protection is a burning problem nowadays. The development of industry has had a bad influence on the world’s nature. We must do our best to protect our environment. To be able to do it we must realize a number of environmental problems.

T: Split up into two teams. Do the word search: cross out worlds referring to the topic, read remaining letters in sequence and you will find out a hidden expression.

The presence of greenhouse 1) ____ (water vapour, carbon dioxide and methane) in the atmosphere does not simply results from human 2) ____ - they also occur naturally. By trapping the Sun’s warmth, these gases play a 3) ____ role in warming the Earth’s atmosphere to level where it can support life.

As explained by the Australian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society about half the sunlight 4) ____ by the Earth is either 5) ____ by the atmosphere or 6) ____ to space by clouds, small particles such as dust and soot, the air itself.

7) ____ are the most important of these reflectors. The often half of the intercepted sunlight is transmitted through the 8) ____, ultimately 9) ____ the Earth’s surface. The land, the oceans, and the atmosphere absorb and emit infrared radiation, the intensity of which increases very rapidly with 10) ____.

Keys: 1-c; 2-a; 3-e; 4-g; 5-f; 6-b; 7-I; 8-h; 9-j; 10-d.

T: Pay attention to the following words a demographer, ecological imbalance and be ready to give their definitions.

URBAN PROBLEMS

The urban problem is one of the most complex in today’s world. One of every six people lives in a city with a population of more then one million. There is a tendency towards rise of the urban population. Today there are many big cities with the population ranging from 5 to 10 million and above. By the year 2010, demographers expect that Mexico City will have population of 30 million, Calcutta, some 20 million, Bombay, and Jakarta, from 15 to 20 million. There are more than 20 cities in the CIS states with the population of over one million.

The main urban problems are water supply, public transport, housing construction, air pollution, noise etc. The problems of ecological imbalance in big cities are very urgent and they can call a crisis if due measures are not taken.

Post-listening

T: Complete the table.

By the year 2010 demographers expect:

Population

Mexico City

Calcutta

Bombay

Jakarta
